Use

In this IMG activity you can overwrite column headers. You can thereby save column headers that depend on the context or that depend on the object type displayed. For example, you can label a column Cost Center when the system displays cost centers, and Personnel Number when the system displays people or employees.

Note:

Note that the view V_TWPC_COLHTYP (Definition of Column Header Types contains a customer namespace. Customer-specific entries must start with Y or Z.

Note that SAP provides customer views in the views V_TWPC_COLHEAD_C (New Definition of Column Headers - Customer) and V_TWPC_V_C (View Definition - Customer).

In the standard delivery, the entries are in the views V_TWPC_COLHEAD (New Definition of Column Headers and V_TWPC_V (View Definition).

If you want to overwrite entries from the standard delivery, you must keep the same key as in the standard for each of your entries in the customer view, and change the remaining entries.

Note that you do not have to perform the Define Header Type step if you only want to change an existing header type.

Recommendation

Activities

  • To overwrite a column header, you must first define a header type. You define a header type in the view V_TWPC_COLHTYP (Definition of Column Header Types), in other words in the Define Header Type step. The view V_TWPC_COLHEAD_C (New Definition of Column Headers - Customer) uses this header type to define the new header. To do this, use the Define Header and Assign to Header Type step.
  • To enter new headers for a view of an organizational structure, enter the header type in the view V_TWPC_V_C (View Definition -Customer), in other words perform the IMG activity Define Views of the Organizational Structure. For further information, see the documentation on the IMG activity Define Views of the Organizational Structure.

  • To define a customer-specific header type, create one in the Define Header Type step, using a key with Y* or Z*. Then, in the Define Header and Assign to a Header Type step, assign your headers to the header type.

  • To overwrite a header that SAP delivers, perform the Define Header and Assign to a Header Type step and enter the header type of the T_TWPC_COLHEAD (New Definition of Column Headers) view in the customer view V_TWPC_COLHEAD_C (New Definition of Column Headers - Customer). Then allocate customer-specific headers to the columns that you want to change.
